Accredited Buyer's Represantative

What is an Accredited Buyer’s Representative?

An Accredited Buyer’s Representative represents the consumer who is purchasing the property in the real estate transaction. This agent ownes full fiduciary responsibilities, duties, and loyalty to the Buyer. The Buyer’s Representative works ONLY for the Buyer and has ONLY the Buyer’s best interests in mind throughout the entire transaction.

Why should I use an Accredited Buyer’s Representative?

As a consumer, how often do you buy real estate? Once, twice three times in your lifetime? Purchasing real estate is a complex and major transaction with many details to be handled. In the majority of cases, the seller will be represented by an agent. Wouldn’t you want to have complete and fair representation as well?

The Buyer’s Representative is responsible for the protection of their client’s best interests. Research conducted by The National Association of Realtors has shown that when a Buyer Representative was utilized, the prospective Buyer found their home one week faster and viewed three more homes than those Buyers that did not use a Buyer’s Representative. Research has also been conducted that showed those same Buyers saved considerable money (purchase price and closing costs) largely due to the knowledge and negotiating skills of their Buyer Representative employed on their behalf.
